No full textDispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

Drug delivery systems to include liposomes and microparticles in order to aid treatment of glioma.
No full textTargeted drug delivery is achieved by enhancing drug availability at the response site while minimising its availability at other sites, especially those that manifest toxicity. The effects of liposomes and polymeric nanoparticles in cancer chemotherapy have been investigated in recent years and there have been some interesting outcomes resulting in improved survival rates of the patients. Thus, the present study was carried out to investigate the effect of encapsulating TMZ and Patrin-2 into liposomes and microparticles separately in order to enhance the delivery.
A validated HPLC system was used for the analysis of both TMZ and Patrin-2. First phase of our study involved the preparation of a delivery system of TMZ and Patrin-2 through liposomes in order to enhance the treatment of glioma. It involved the application of freeze-thaw and dehydration-rehydration methods to encapsulate the TMZ into liposomes. However, the desired encapsulation efficiency (EE %) of TMZ was not achieved using these methods, the maximum entrapment achieved with freeze-thaw method was 11.54 ± 0.70 % while for dehydration-rehydration method was 26.69 ± 0.34 %. Therefore the second phase focussed on preparing polymeric microparticles for continuous delivery of intact TMZ and Patrin-2 using the spray dry method. The maximum entrapment achieved using this method for TMZ was 64.32 ± 2.58 % while the maximum entrapment achieved for Patrin-2 was 68.47 ± 1.47 %, thus, this technique was found to be successful for the preparation of both TMZ and Patrin-2 loaded PLGA microparticles. Furthermore the release study of both TMZ and Patrin-2 was investigated using dispersion and dialysis methods. TMZ and Patrin-2 showed an initial burst release, however TMZ later showed decrease in concentration over the period of time while Patrin-2 showed a slow release with an increase in concentration.
This novel study aids in comparing various methods used for investigating the preparation of TMZ loaded liposomes, and TMZ and Patrin-2 loaded microparticles. In preparation of liposomes based on this research dehydration-rehydration was found to be a more efficient method than the freeze-thaw method for encapsulating TMZ, while the spray dry method was found to be more effective than the emulsifying solvent evaporation method in obtaining the maximum EE % for TMZ and Patrin-2 for preparation of microparticles. The release profiles of TMZ and Patrin-2 from the microparticles was studied using the dispersion method and the dialysis bag diffusion technique however due to tome being the limited factor the technique could not be explored completely

Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses
No full textFollowing an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
